Description

Blood Reef: Tarawa is a historical module for Advanced Squad Leader that drops you right into the chaos of the US Marines' invasion of Tarawa. This intense wargame is designed for 2 players and can take around 120 minutes to play, giving you plenty of time to immerse yourself in the action. With its complex rules, even experienced board game enthusiasts will need to take some time to learn the ins and outs, but the payoff is well worth the effort. The game features a hexagon grid and line of sight mechanics, which add a layer of strategy and realism to the gameplay. As you play through the 7 scenario campaign game, you'll be using the 2 historical-accurate mapsheets to navigate the treacherous terrain of Tarawa. Originally published in 1999 by designers Steve Dethlefsen and Eddie Zeman, this module has been updated and expanded over the years, and is now available from Multi-Man Publishing. To get the most out of Blood Reef: Tarawa, you'll need to have Advanced Squad Leader, as well as some of the other modules in the series, such as Yanks: ASL Module 3, Code of Bushido: ASL Module 8, and Gung Ho!: ASL Module 9. With its rich historical context and challenging gameplay, Blood Reef: Tarawa is a must-play for fans of World War II wargames and the Advanced Squad Leader series.
